It's a busy offseason schedule for Schiefer with the Ole Miss Rebels and Pete Golding looking to make an impact during their visit on March 20 as Spring Camp inches closer in Oxford.
Ole Miss is preparing to bring in multiple top targets this offseason with Golding and Co. beginning to swing for the fences in the 2028 Recruiting Cycle.
The Target to Know:
Ole Miss is preparing to host multiple coveted targets in the 2028 Recruiting Cycle this month - including America's No. 1 safety, Giovanni Tuggle. amid a meteoric rise.
The Winder (Ga.) four-star safety will make his way to Oxford this offseason for an unofficial visit with Golding and the Ole Miss Rebels as the program intensifies its pursuit.
Tuggle, the top-ranked safety in the 2028 Recruiting Cycle, has quickly emerged as the top defensive back in America after back-to-back dominant seasons to begin his prep career.
The 6-foot, 180-pounder made a splash as a freshman in 2024 where he logged 39 tackles and 6 interceptions in 8 varsity contests against the top talent in the Peach State.

Fast forward to his sophomore campaign last fall and the top-ranked safety logged 74 tackles (53 solo, 21 assisted), 2.0 tackles for loss, four interceptions, five pass deflections, one forced fumble, and a fumble recovery.
